Betwixt and Between

This is a busy week for me, which is good news as some money will hit my bank at some point. I'm still sticking to the no fritter and am on course to turn everything around financially. The No Fritter challenge almost draws to a close only 15 days to go and apart from a rush on Percy Pigs last week I can hold my hand on heart and state (so far) I've done good, bought nothing.

Career is still a sticking point. It is not something that will change in a day or week but I'm having to work at going forward. I had a film bid rejected yesterday, but the work I've done so far is a great building block to continue with the project. Rejection is always a toughie because it dents hope and at some point rejection if continuous, spells the end of a dream. But I favour the Winston Churchill view that with every no you are closer to a yes. Though this has to be tempered with not appearing like your taking part in a delusional X Factor audition!

I had a story rejected yesterday -- seems like a daily occurrence in my household, haha. Anyhow, must keep plugging away, right? I know you will. And I'm glad to hear you've gotten some work this week!

A beautiful skirt - I promise not to snap it up so it will still be there when your no-fritter challenge ends soon! Keep at it - I've been there before, the freelance life is an acquired lifestyle and I admire your stance

Wise words, although I do usually deal with rejection with Chanel or cake or both. The outnet is a bad place, it invites you in so inocently and then grabs you unawares with its discounts - on the bright side I find if I ever try and actually make a purchase on there it will be sold out by the time I get to check out. You have will power of steel x
